Milwaukee, WI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,400

Hi, I’m Kelsey! I am a wedding photographer! I am obsessed with dogs. I will never not acknowledge a dog near me by saying “puppers”. It is what it is. I would 100% rather be on the beach somewhere with palm trees. I am constantly daydreaming about being in the tropics. I love the color black. If we work together, there is a high chance that will be my outfit color of choice.

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,250

The goal is simple, that you fully live and enjoy your day. My approach is built on kindness, fun, and caffeine. My style is documentary first, complimented with editorial portraits. Your wedding day is a collection of fleeting yet unforgettable moments. All you need to do is be fully present and celebrate with all of your people in one place. I want all the authentic, unfiltered excitement. I want you to be free to dance in the rain, to jump in the pool, and to embrace the imperfect. Most importantly, I want for you the immeasurable joy of this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

If you’re looking for a photographer for your big day, look no further because Derrick is the absolute best! He captured every moment and emotion of our wedding at the Farmhouse in Plainfield so beautifully. Looking at these photos I’m instantly taken back to that moment and how I felt. Derrick was so organized, helpful, and kind throughout the whole process from planning to the wedding itself. His efficiency and professionalism on the wedding day allowed me to be in the moment and enjoy every little part of our day because I knew we were in great hands. He truly is just so talented and a pleasure to work with. Seriously, look no further, you’ve found the best! Oh and let’s take a moment to appreciate how well he photographed our dogs too! Thank you so much again for everything Derrick! I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos

Chelsea Matson Photography 

5.0

Milwaukee, WI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $4,600

Hi! I grew up in NY and came to Milwaukee 8 years ago - you could say it was for love. We have settled in and embraced our new community. I have been so lucky to always have working with people at the forefront of everything I do. From teaching to non profit work, photography allows me to do all of those things. I LOVE being outside and exploring new places. We live on the shores of Lake Michigan and visit the beach regularly year round. When I am not frolicking and photographing amazing people, I am usually spending time with my nutty little family outside.

It’s been over a month after my wedding and I’m still wondering if it is acceptable to love you wedding photographer more then your husband??? I can not speak more highly of Chelsea! When we first met I knew it was meant to be, her passion for capturing love and telling a love story just pours out of her. When looking for a wedding photographer we wanted someone who was easy going, professional, fun to work with, and loved love as much of us, Chelsea blew these “requirements” out of the water. Not only is she an amazing, kind, caring person but her work is is equally amazing. We love that her photos are edited in a natural way and that she captures all of the small natural moments. Nothing every seemed forced! My husband and I highly recommend Chelsea Matson Photographer! We are so grateful that she came into our lives (for good now) and could capture the most important day of our lives.

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,499

In 2011, Scott Patrick founded Cream City Weddings to provide a collection of quality, creative services under one roof. His team includes talented photographers, videographers, album and graphic designers, DJs, officiants and event planners. The focus, however, is still he same, to collaborate with clients to create top quality images that tell the story of their business, social event, or family milestone. If you're looking for authentic, creative, documentary styled images for your business or event, please contact us. We’ll collaborate with you to create an amazing set of images to tell your story.

I absolutely loved working with Cream City Weddings. They gave me exactly what I asked for (which was amazing ) but my inability to be open minded and consider other possibilities has left me with some regrets. The photography was great and I love looking through my album but I wish I would have been open to the possibility of a video. Truthfully when I was planning my wedding everything came down to cost and I could not see past the bottom line. Cream City Weddings was incredibly respectful of my budget and did not push me however I wish they would have. Be open to different possibilities and make sure you communicate with your photographer because you get one chance to do this.

Dennis Felber Photography 
Milwaukee, WI
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $2,000

It's all about having fun! If you love what you do it isn't work! You will notice that I am always in motion, always looking for that unique angle, reflection or to get that shadow in just the right place. I have even been known to climb a tree to get that special perspective from above. I will always offer suggestions for those adventurous enough to try something new for some great photos. Photographing weddings for over 20 years, I still find new ways to approach the day. It is more than just documenting the day but also about capturing the emotions, expressions and laughter with your friends and family.

From the initial consult, to the delivery of our Gallery, Sam was the superhero needed to keep things going smoothly. If you’re looking for a photographer who has skills in getting to know who you really are, making sure your personality is as much in the photos as you are, going above and beyond to help things go smoothly, take care of things you didn’t even know needed to be done, and show up in whatever way helps you while getting the job done: you’ve found her. I could not possibly say enough that would capture how great of an experience it was to work with Sam; the professionalism, care, and attention to details are as equally prevalent in her practice as her positive attitude, genuine helpfulness, and kind spirit. That is to say, Sam is everything you could want in a photographer, and everything you need to make sure it’s done with the utmost precision and skill.

Puneet S Ghai Photography 

5.0

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Milwaukee, WI

My photography business was born in sunny San Diego, but a new adventure has led me to the midwest! I currently live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with my wife, our two cats, Nesta and Zinnia, and our dog, Clementine. I studied Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior at UC Davis and went on to my Masters at UCSD in Healthcare Administration. Through all of this professional development, photography has been my constant and my creative outlet. I have been capturing moments for the past six years. To me, photography is a practice and a ritual. I am inspired by emotion, movement and adventure. I can't wait to meet you and capture your adventures.

Not sure if you'd call our wedding "weird" or "unconventional" but we certainly had our fair share of odd moments. We were originally worried about hiring any photographer just because we didn't know how well we'd be able to communicate every little oddity our community would throw at us on our day especially since there were bound to be surprises. Then comes Puneet. The smile on his face always reminding us that this was our day, his kind words telling us we were doing great, he rolled with everything we threw at him and got so many amazing pictures. Pretty sure we even got him on the dance floor once. As my mom-in-law said afterwards "It's so great that you found a photographer who just instantly felt like part of the family. Thank you Puneet. It would not have been the same without you.

  • Serves Milwaukee, WI

I have a passion for travel and I love meeting new people and hearing their crazy (or not so crazy) stories. I love trying new things and walking around a new city until my feet bleed (that's literally happened...still love you tho, NYC). I'm a major extrovert, but I have a great appreciation for the little things in life. You'll likely find me sipping some strong coffee at a local café or snuggled up on the couch with some wine, pizza, and my husband on a rainy day. With a camera in hand, I am probably the most annoying person to travel with, stopping every ten feet to take a picture. Sorry not sorry.

If you feel awkward in front of the camera or hate stiff, posed photos, you’re not alone. And you’re definitely in the right place. I’m Kate, a Milwaukee-based photographer, originally from Russia. I work with people who want photos that feel like them, not some overly edited version, not overly posed. Just honest moments that actually mean something. Whether it’s your wedding day, an engagement, or just a portrait session to capture this season of life, we’ll keep it relaxed, a little cinematic, and most importantly, real. Come as you are, I’ll do the rest.

Katophotoo was the perfect wedding photographer for our special day. Her communication was super quick, and she always answered any questions we had. She was extremely professional and ensured we had precious memories captured, including catching the perfect in-the-moment shots and even more. Katophotoo is very skilled at using the golden hour to take breathtaking images, and we loved all the pictures she took! Her work was truly invaluable in helping make our wedding day so special!

Retired actress, ex-celebrity nanny, Los Angeles expat turned editorial photographer and intimate chronicler of your love, I'm Ashton. My eye for aesthetic was honed during my 15 years in L.A. but my roots are as midwestern and full of heart as Brett Favre winning the 1997 Superbowl. I value love, human connection and well executed visions coming to fruition as fully experienced celebrations, documented honestly and preserved as imagery that you can feel forever.

As a wedding coordinator, I love working other vendors that are professional, clear, and KIND. Ashton was all of those things! She was super professional, had excellent communication beforehand and day-of, and ran a super tight ship.

More than a decade ago, two sisters - knew there had to be a better way to allow talented photographers and videographers to focus on what they do best -- create gorgeous art -- while providing couples with better support in the planning process. Together, they created an all-inclusive, stress-free environment where couples can choose from talented local photographers and videographers and work with a small team of planning experts equipped and eager to make everything a success. With the pressure gone, you can truly enjoy your big day. Relax and rest assured that all the emotional and moments will be documented with unmatched quality.

OLAS were the easiest vendor I worked with throughout the wedding process. Their quick and efficient communication gave me the peace of mind I needed when it came to wedding photos. I had a very specific vision for our imagery, and OLAS and our photographer were more than accommodating as I neurotically guided some photos. Our photographer came equipped with a great attitude and even better skills in capturing our day, and I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photography experience.
